An Eye on You

.23 July 2010 - American sculptor Tony Tasset has an eye for art. He constructed a sculpture of eye - his own eye - and put it on display in a park in Chicago. I am still mesmerizing the fantastic Hakone Open Air Museum, and this may fit well on site. Tasset put quite some time and effort in his work. After building the giant sphere from 24 pieces of fiber glass, he primed the peeper; coated it off with white paint; and added hundred of veins, a detailed blue iris and a black pupil. Tasset says he makes art for average Joes and art-loving "intellectuals", and he adds that art should be fun! I like that idea. Tasset''s eye will remain on display til 31 October. Gone in a blink.
